IN CASE YOU donât know, it is, the White House has announced, Older Americans Month.
In the newspaper game, they say, âWrite what you know.â I find I know about being âolder.â That sounds just a bit kinder than the bald word âold.â
Chalmers M. Roberts wrote a wonderful book, âHow Did I Get Here So Fast?: Rhetorical Questions and Available Answers from a Long and Happy Life.â Quite so.
I was the youngest at everything for a long time. I didnât go to college, so I got a head start in journalism. Leaving school at 16 wasnât then considered a life sentence of being second-rate. In those days and that place, Southern Rhodesia, a college education was a rarity; and people who had one were regarded as wise, even if they were stupid, as they frequently were.
